The clearest difference is in-app purchases: StartStop Podcast Recorder at none against Clapper!'s 1. StartStop Podcast Recorder also leads on ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 2 days vs every 6 months). Clapper!'s advantage is iOS requirement (15.6 vs 17.0). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
